This was a great meal. The staff were friendly and they have good selection of wine list. The foods were delicious and reasonably priced. Overall, loved my experience.
Incredibly well kept. Gracious and hospitable staff. Food is delicious and reasonably priced. Atmosphere could use some work - music or live band. TBM (Tight Bun Mary) is the DJ, so make sure to request your favourite. Should be a busier place, when we visited it was quite slow and as a result seemed to close early. More people need to come here - let’s go Mesquite! Kirsten (bartender) is a great addition to the team - deserves a raise!
I have to say that I really was surprised at just how nice of a restaurant this is especially being out in a town on the edge of Nevada. The atmosphere was wonderful, the service excellent and the food was really good too. On our visit, my wife and I dined at the bar which I should add, is really well stocked with fine wines and or for our purposes, bourbon and I should note that the pours were very generous! As an appetizer, we were served warm bread that was accompanied by a bean, garlic and oil dip that was just to die for. We both chose to get a salad with our meal and was happy to see it came with a healthy mix of dark baby greens, home made vinaigrette dressing and topped with grated parmesan and this instead of iceberg lettuce with grocery store Italian dressing in a plastic cup. As far as our meals go, my wife ordered the Chicken Picatta and I the Chicken Angelo and both were awesome. This is definitely a stop we'll be making again any time we make our way through Mesquite.
Absolutely outstanding experience! I wish I could give them more star's. Food is amazingly delicious, from start to finish I was thoroughly impressed. Our bartender was on point, I honestly can't wait to come back.
Service was on point. The Salmon Florentine was perfectly cook. Appreciated that inside was smoke-free and low noise allowing us to hold a conversation. Great stop!
Loved the food and atmosphere. The service was good. Servers were polite and attentive. Prices were affordable. I give it a thumbs up!
Great food and atmosphere. The bread with beans was a nice surprise and was quite good. I had the Lasagna and it was amazing. My wife enjoyed the chicken masala as well.
If I could give this place a 10, I would. The service was excellent, food delish and so much none of us could finish it, and the decor was Amazing. The prices are a little steep but you definitely get what you pay for and more. The starter bread with beans was so delish I wish I could get the recipe. All of it was great, even for my picky grandkids!
